I'm using very slow and strict form on all my lifts, including my biceps which I recently dropped. I like the results a lot more than struggling with them. I'll be dropping my triceps to 3x10/3x8, and raising quads to 4x8. On quads I am merging squats and dips. I am incredibly pleased with my gains and had hoped to buy 50 more lbs soon but mom and I are in a bit of a pickle so I cannot afford to.

I'm finding tremendous strength in my Vegan conviction and animal rights and liberation thanks to a very close friend, whom I am tremendously indebted to.

I beat the absolute shit out of myself. Dealing with a lot of bad juju in my personal life, weightlifting is my stress relief ball. I was forced to take yesterday off so I am going to skip my next upcoming rest day, since I am headed toward a rest week soon anyway.

Another forced rest day. Was supposed to run but there is way too much ice on the ground and it's FREEZING here. So screw that. I'll lift tomorrow, run Monday, lift Tuesday, Run Wednesday, Lift Thursday, and then probably take a week off...maybe.

My sleeping habits are getting funky so I will be headed for a rest week in 1/2 a week to 1 week. I have revised my diet to include more complete proteins and veggies. If anyone is interested here is what I eat. Every. Single. Day. It's affordable, measurable, and predictable. So I don't mind.

Meal 6:300g whole wheat flour (In the form of pancakes with un-butter and syrup or bread) And coffee or tea

Meal 7:50g pea/rice and soy protein and 3g Creatine

Misc: A couple cups of tea, sometimes with stevia, some peanut butter and fruit. On Saturdays mom and I do a special meal like Tofurky pizza, or tofu w/ rice and veggies etc. which I eat in addition to all this.
